Modern problems require modern solutions, but in the realm of public health, how do we decide what makes the cut? Health regulation helps set the standard for the safety and quality of health care, and with the help of our guest, Lindsay Orsolino, and her experience in the Department of Health while handing the Health Regulations Team and the Food and Drug Administration, we can better understand how our COVID-19 laboratories came about and how that vaccine made it to your arm.

Bonus: Find discussions on mental health advocacy and the current work being done at the Department!
